Joseph Amiel – Hawkes – Uncorrected Proof Copy
£35.00
An uncorrected proof copy of Hawkes by Joseph Amiel, published by Macmillan. A near fine copy, fading and creasing to the spine, bumping to head of spine and corners of soft front board, shelf wear and fading to front board, text block bright and crisp.
Hawks by Joseph Amiel is a poignant coming-of-age novel set in the stark Arctic. When young David’s father dies, he must support his mother and sister in an isolated, frigid town. Ostracised at school, David’s life transforms when he bonds with a wild hawk named Gizmo—training it to hunt brings purpose. Amiel’s lyrical prose vividly captures the beauty and isolation of the Arctic wilderness, weaving themes of grief, resilience and the profound connections between humans and nature.
